Quick and simple to make and everybody loves them. How can you go wrong? Ingredients:
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies |
1 1/2 cups shredded monterey jack cheese |
6 8-inch flour tortillas |
1 cup shredded cooked chicken meat |
1 small tomato, seeded and chopped |
2 green onions, finely chopped |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro |
butter or margarine |
guacamole (for garnish) (optional) |
sour cream (for garnish) (optional) |
salsa (for garnish) (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat a skillet over low heat.
2. Spread a small amount of butter evenly over one side of tortilla and place tortilla buttered side down in the skillet.
3. For each tortilla, sprinkle 1/4 cup cheese over 1/2 of the tortilla and top with chopped chilies, chicken, tomato, green onions, and cilantro.
4. Fold the other side over the top and press down gently.
5. Cook quesadilla over low heat 3-4 minutes or until lightly browned, turning once.
6. Remove quesadilla from skillet and keep warm on a plate in a low oven (300F).
7. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
8. When finished, serve quesadillas cut in three sections (using a pizza cutter works great) and garnished with guacamole, sour cream and salsa, if desired.
